Assistive Technology For Students with Disabilities

Read&Write: Text-to-Speech and more

The Read&Write family of literacy software makes the web,
documents, and files more accessible - any time, any place, and on
any platform or device. From reading on-screen text aloud to
researching and checking written work, Read&Write makes
everyday tasks easier.

The benefits of Read&Write for Google Chrome
include:

An easy to use toolbar that integrates seamlessly with Google
Drive and the web

Text-to-speech for reading accessible and inaccessible content
in Google Docs, PDFs, ePubs, and on the web

Tools like talking and picture dictionaries and a translator to
support struggling readers or English Language Learners

Writing tools like word prediction and voice dictation

Colored highlighters for researching and extracting information
from documents and the web

Typewriter and post-it annotations for PDFs and ePubs in Google
Drive

Students can access Read&Write for Google Chrome on all
academic computers, including those in the computer labs, Office of
Student Success, and the Kaplan Family Library.
